The New York Times questions
whether the lawyers who by their
counsel aided and abetted Sharp
in his crooked transactions are
not liable as well as he. Ger
tainly Judge Bradley's charge af-
fords some foundation for such a
belief. In the course OF his charge
he said {:
The law says that a person who
aids, directly or indirectly, IN pro.
curing the commission of a crime
is a principal. If out of a hun.
dred persons one commits a crime
and was counseled by the others,
the other ninety-nine arc guilty.
You may go back TIL you reach the
fountain head, and if along the
line you meet people who aided OF
abetted, they are all liable.

LRELAKD'S GREETING.


Proud Queen, to-day Old Ireland sends you
greeting. ....
She sends it not in the words OF a song for
they are heeting,
No, she sends IL in the blood and tears
Which have marked the hours and years
Since you came to Williams blood-bought
throne
Which throne was never known
With justice to have shone
Upon the nations 1t claims as ipsown.
Brave Queen during yonr fifty years,
Nv children have reaped naught but fears
Fears OF poverty, prison and death,
And Of the parting that's worse than death.
o, Queen mighty Queen ! 55..
Have you not seen
My fields and streets covered with sorrow
and shame
And all done in your hOnored name,
Because my sons sought after freedoms
fame
Have not my brave sons fought your battlesP
Yet, what have they won from your battles
the bread
That win keep them from the homes OF the
dead
And give them a shelter for the weary head.
o, Queen have you not heard
How these strong men Wept for
DfEdu
Aud walled, "Oh, God, would wo were dead
Would, o, would we were dead P'
o, Queen a. you sit on your throne alone,
High above the common herd at your feet,
Do you ever think how my land was wone
From my sons and daughters Does the
national cheat
Make your royal heart faster beat
As you fancy how the Lords eye you'll meet
As upon His judgment seat
He sits to greet
The rich and poor, the high and meek
0, Queen Is your heart and hand made OF
iron
And have you naught but hate for poor Ire
What is my crime Is it because l believe
IN fTeedomF
Why, your own fathers Of Orange blod for
freedom,
And swore by the cross 10 die free men,
o, Queen thy throne can only live among
free men,
They are Its pillars Of Are
The only power able TO mount II
higher
And save # from ambitions desire
Then, Q, Queen lend my children a helping
hand,
And promise you q mighty band
OF loving hearts, and whose every part
VIII prove a shield and q dart
A safe wall IN the light and the dark
0, Queen love is better thRn hate
And tits not too late
To change thy nations fate,
Such, 0, Queen is poor ITeland's greeting
to thee,
What viii be thy greeting, o, Queen, TO me
Shall have more cheer this year
Shall my children have less cause TO fear
During the days Of this Jubilee year
God grant #, o, Queen
Then to thy throne will bring
The loud sounding cry, "GOd save the Queen
God save the Queen ~
And then, 0, Queen the red with the green
will blend
And thy voice to our hearts will send
A Joy Which will send a fear to the hearts oi
thy foes;
And thy children sayed from anarGhy's woes
viii bless, and call thee the best Of queens,
And our childTen IN p@ans,
Or the song of the queens,
VIII record thy deeds in Homenc numbers
Aud thy throne as the center OF wonders,

That is to say, your luugs. Also

wonderful machinery it is. Not only
